it could just be the heat and body changes in being pregnant or it could be a liver condition thats common in pregnancy you need to speak to your m/w she may want to do some bloods or she may just say its your hormones x

Phone your MW hun. It can be a sign of obstetric choliosis which is a liver disorder that some women get during pregnancy.

You should defo talk to a doctor, it could be obstetric cholestialis like Leanne said, and it requires treatment. I hope its nothing though! it could always mean youre overheating

if you mention itching she'll ask you to take a blood test (im not sure midwives take bloods for this one) but if she does defo get them done hun! im sure youre fine though . have you tried some moisturizing cream, maybe that'll help
